Round Shungite Bead Dangle Necklace with Sterling Silver and Black Leather

This unisex necklace is both fun and functional!

It features a large round black shungite bead measuring about 16mm, dangling from black leather cording. The bead slides along the leather on a bail constructed from sterling silver wire.

A decorative silver bead cap has been added, made by the Karen Hill Tribe of northern Thailand. Hill Tribe beads are handmade and have a higher silver content than sterling.

Benefits Specific to THIS Particular Form of Pendant

I originally designed this pendant for a customer who is a master applied kinesiologist. According to her testing of shungite, it is the only stone that possesses polarity.

She found that wearing a spherical shungite bead is the optimal form because it eliminates this polarity. Flat or irregular surfaces of a shungite pendant can apparently interfere with its benefits to our biofield, but this does not happen with the round bead.

This necklace is custom made to your requested length and closes with a sterling silver clasp in the style of your choice.

**Please note this is a custom item. Custom items cannot be fully refunded.

How to Measure Necklace Length

The measurement I need is the full circle around your neck - ALL the way around, including the clasp. 

If you want a different length from the choices listed, please state that preference in the "Notes" box upon checkout. 

Which Clasp Do I Choose?

You get a choice between two high quality clasp styles. 

Each has its advantages, so it's really a matter of personal preference. 

Mag-Lok Clasp: The Mag-Lok is a very strong, self-aligning rare earth magnet encased in sterling silver. The advantage of a Mag-Lok is that it's easy to open and close with one hand. The disadvantage is that, being a strong magnet, if you have a cardiac pacemaker you should NOT should not wear a Mag-Lok. 

To open the Mag-Lok, it is best to SLIDE the two halves apart rather than pulling. A thumbnail can be handy to get it started. It closes itself!

Lobster Claw Clasp: A lobster claw style clasp is the tried-and-true classic jewelry closure. The advantage is, it's a bit lighter and prettier. However, it can also be a bit more challenging to attach and detach using one hand, especially for those with arthritis or poor vision.
